DREAMageddon: Vote Set for Saturday

[Geee]

Pajamas Media:

Now that the tax deal and omnipork are done, Sen. Harry Reid is putting the DREAM Act on the docket for a vote this weekend. We should be clear about what the DREAM Act is. It’s an amnesty, an invitation to lawlessness, and an abuse of the American taxpayer. With the individual mandate and ObamaCare, the pork-laden 2009 “stimulus,” the bailouts and assorted other Democratic policies over the past two years, the American taxpayer has run up against an awful lot of abuse. The DREAM Act turns that abuse up to 11.

Sen. Jeff Sessions has listed 10 reasons the DREAM Act must die. Here’s a taste:

The DREAM Act Is NOT Limited to Children — Applicants can be up to the age of 29

The DREAM Act Will Be Funded On the Backs Of Hard Working, Law-Abiding Americans — CBO failed to assess costs for education, increased levels of unemployment due to the addition of workers to the workforce, and increases in potential applicants because of loopholes.

The DREAM Act PROVIDES SAFE HARBOR FOR ANY ALIEN, Including Criminals, From Being Removed or Deported If They Simply Submit An Application — Burden of proving inaccurate information on a DREAM Act application is on the Department of Homeland Security.
